Welcome to the website of VMI

VMI (Verein des Mittelbaus der Informatik an der ETH Zürich) is the association of scientific staff of the Department of Computer Science at ETH Zurich. The scientific staff (Mittelbau) includes PhD students, postdocs, and other scientific employees of the Department (excluding professors).

The mission of VMI is to contribute in making the Department of Computer Science at ETH Zurich an exceptionally attractive place to teach and research. To this end, VMI

• represents the interests of the scientific staff within the relevant decision‐making bodies of the Department,
• provides information and (non‐financial) support to members of the scientific staff, and
• fosters networking and collaboration among members of the scientific staff.

The VMI started collecting information relevant for PhD students (and other employees) in a Wiki. Please contribute whatever you find reasonable or helpful, and feel free to also add your questions so other employees can (and hopefully will) answer them. The access is restricted to employees of D-INFK, please log in with your usual Nethz-account.
